If you are trying to convert the data type of topics going through the OPC UA server and have issues with viewing the data (you see 

Solution: Parse Data before Sending to OPC UA Server

To resolve this issue, you will need to create a custom OPC UA custom tag by creating a JSON object and sending it to the appropriate topic. 

You can also review the following JSON file example that creates a flow to convert the data type of data before sending it to the OPC UA Server. See 

 to learn more about importing JSON files.
